9/5 video poker on the Vegas strip

[lindyjohn]

I seem to have better luck at the bar. I can not find a 9/5 video poker machine on the strip. Wonder why poorer odds seem to pay off better?

Mandalay Bay used to have them but when I was there last month I noticed they are now 8/5. It sounds like the others have changed as well.

I recommend www.vpfree2.comwill tell you what machines are available in each casino. It's 99% accurate.Only 9/6 JOB I know on the strip is in high denominations, $5 or more.Westgate is the exception, but if your thinking of finding decent paytables on the strip like MGM, Bellagio, Planet Hollywood, Cosmo, yadda yadda with low denominations...think again. At any rate, go to vpfree2.com. It will help.
